I'm sorry, Ailantd, but I noticed on your page that you are using clouds from REX.

Did you create those clouds for REX? If not, I do believe you are violating copyright since REX is a payware product.

Not trying to accuse you of anything, your modding work has always been appreciated.

I informed UBI about this bug before SH5 was released...
But I'm sure that is easy to correct:

Hi Antar,

I already asked the very same question in this thread. Ailantd doesn't think that this will be easy to fix ...

Cheers

This way at least SH clouds are not so ugly like vanilla. Next release will have none borrow textures. Also I´m working with clouds.dat and very interesting things can be done so new release would not change only texture files.

:timeout: due to the fact that he freely admits copyrighted material was used in his mods, all of the links to them were removed until such time as he can rerelease the mods without this pirated content in them.

sorry for any trouble this causes you.

a decision somewhat radical since only textures rex clouds have been use.the rest of the mod (the best mod graphic moment) are works that are personal property. Ailantd was honest in giving his sources. Like what honesty does not always pay..:cry:

we have said over and over here at subsim we do not care what you do in your own home but do not talk about it. here he admitted it and made subsim an unwilling partner in copyright infringement.

what is so radical about banning someone who admitted to promoting stolen/pirated stuff that the copyright holder (REX) has contacted subsim and demanded it to be removed from our site?

radical would have been if he were to have had his account deleted, a week long ban isnt the end of the world even thou i admit it is a PITA as it is intended to be.

his mod links were in fact distributing pirated copyrighted content that the owner of said content does not want distributed by anyone other then those licensed to do so.

ironkross 03-28-10 04:04 PM

While in the brig, Ailantd has uploaded newer versions on his website (copyrighted material removed.) If anyone needs the link would it be ok to post now?

urfisch 03-28-10 05:19 PM

i dont understand the problem here...the material he took was not used for any commercial purpose from him. normally this is no problem. only if the material is used for commercial things you are in trouble.

:hmmm:

ddrgn 03-28-10 06:01 PM

Why don't guys ripping sounds from movies and putting them into sound mods get banned too? Last I checked movies are copyrighted.

It boils down to this; though I agree I don't see any real harm- intended or done.

It's not "ok" to distribute something for free that somebody else is charging for. The clouds were from REX, which is a payware add-on for FS9/FSX. It'd be the same thing as somebody buying soemthing and then putting the files up on a DL site.

The people here who do not understand the problem with this boggle my mind. lol

:nope:

...

problem is your comparison. it does not fit the overall problem of illegally distributed material. if you distribute material for free, which is a market product used from many people, so normally needs to be payed for...its a problem. cause you do harm to the original manufacturer, who can not sell as much any more - cause many people got this "product" already for free.

BUT

this only affects the normal market!!! modding is not a "market", right? so, if you use material for a hobby purpose, you do not harm anyone - quite the contrary if a community gets a benefit. this REX is very special, its not a thing like a movie, etc. - distributing a movie just for hobby purpose...fits your comparison. cause it harms the company, which benefit depends on the sale of the movies. movies are not a mod - and a mod is not a movie!!!

so please, do not mix things up and stop buggling your head, dude.

By the logic used to ban Ailantd, they should.
